Nor anywhere else in the civilised world, jj!I merely comment on the fact that, given the distribution of my given name beteen the sexes, there is something like a 25:1 chance that I am a woman, not a man!

Ah ha! Rhubarb, you believe in "odds" therefor you are a mere man.Let's play a game that had a curious run a few years back...

Ready? Ok; I've put 24 unsightly men and one breathtakingly beautiful woman (with a slight flaw} in 25 boxes marked #1 through #25. I ask you to pick the woman and you - being somewhat predictable- pick number 7. Now I order all the men to climb out of their stupid box and go home except box #7 and box #8, this leaves one woman and one man in boxes # 7 and box #8.
